Join our Engineering Solutions Event where six teams of students will collaborate to design the most profitable hotel using a limited set of construction materials and pricing charts. Your challenge is to build a hotel that connects all 50 cubes, ensuring each room has at least one window. Costs include land, roof, and taxes based on building height. Compete against other teams to identify creative and efficient solutions to maximize profits. This event connects engineering principles with real-world applications in construction, encouraging teamwork and innovation.
